I'm god awful with a keyboard and mouse but I'll at least try it out.

Anyone use their PS3 controller on their PC? It can be done, and I have a driver installed for it but can't figure out how to use the goddamn thing. Without that, I'm moving at a snail's pace and having to come to a complete stop to shoot someone.

Make sure its plugged in.

Yeah it's plugged in but only a few of the buttons are functional. Up makes me back up, down makes me move forward, X drops nades, and R2 shoots. Other than that, the controller is fucking me haha.

Well the thing is, I don't have a mouse. I just have the touchpad, and it's harder than Penguin in front of a group of fourth grade boys showering to aim and shoot with the side of my thumb while I try to run around.

I'll figure something out. It only runs 'til the 1st so I wanna at least be able to make my way all the way around the map and try each of the classes.

You can get a mouse for less than $10 you cheap bastard. I got one like last year that was around $10 and it came with the nano bluetooth dongle. Granted I never use the damn thing but still they're pretty cheap.

Yeah but I don't want to spend ten bucks on something that I'll use for the next week and likely never again. I photoshop easier with the touchpad and I never use the mouse when I'm writing so it's not something that I'd ever utilize.
